    My New Boat

    After looking at heaps of boats over the last few months I came across this wonderful little gem

    Used 1999 STACER 414 Boat For Sale - boatsales.com.au

    As soon as I saw it I knew it was mine. Its been the previous owners Pride and Joy since brand new and is immaculate. Even scored a little 3.3hp for trolling. Now all I gotta do is catch some fish

    Nice. Just the sort of thing I am looking for, however I want a tiller control (or at least with seats/controls at the stern), so it is more comfortable.

    Nice bit of gear there

    Where will you be fishing - mainly the Bay or will you head to the hills for some trout fishing

    Whatever, the trailer has decent sized wheels so it should track the Land Rover pretty well.

    Nice buy.
    Im putting money aside for a boat,AND HOPING FOR THE LOTTO GODS TO SMILE UPON ME.
    Want something in the 7m size so I can go off-shore.
    However its a big investment.Wondering if I should buy something similar to this to get a bit of experience and to ensure I actually get to use a boat(closest ocean is 160km away) before investing big money in a big boat.

    Get a Cat, for offshore a 18-19' cat is hard to beat.

    The money you spent on a 7m boat would buy a lot of fishing charters

    Yes it would.
    Fishing on a charter involves sorting mates to join in too,no fun fishing with a bunch of strangers.

    So does a 7mtr boat

    You'll be forever roping mates in to crew and fuel it....

    A good friend has a 7mtr Cat.
    Awesome vessel, but each tank is $300.00 to fill
